The Way To Peace! #27 -Revisited-
"No One said that The Way To Peace Would Be Easy," But, "The Images of The Innocent who have Died along The Way," "Continue to Haunt my Thoughts," and are Ablaze in my Mind, and "Can Not Be Erased or Denied!" And, "Their Lives Must Not Be Lost in Vain!"
"No One has said" that "There Would Not Be Another Warmonger," (Such as President Bashar al-Assad of Syria), whose "Malevolent Intention is to Assassinate," or "Use Chemical Warfare on His Own People," or "Yet Another Child of Peace!"
But, It Must Be Obvious that "Peace Must Prevail in The End!" Why? Because, "We The People" and "Leaders of the Civilized Nations of The Earth Can Not Afford to Be Intimidated by," or "Threatened by Egotistical Bullies, Brutes and Barbarous Beasts of War!"
"The Images of Too Many Innocent Children and Parents," who have "Lost Their Lives Due to Yet Another Escalation of Violence on Earth," are "An Offense to Both my Heart and Soul," and "the Peacemaker, Lover of Life, and Poet that Lies within me!"
And, It makes me Wonder, If I Can Sense this Growing Anger and Storm of Discontent over the Crimes that have Been Committed against Humanity by Rogue Nations, Dictators, and Syndicates of Murderer and Criminals," "What Must the Silent Majority of People Be Feeling and Thinking!"
And, "How Much Longer Will It Take Before These Predators of Humankind are Brought to Justice, in Front of An International Court of Law," Conducted by the Civilized Nations of The Earth for "Their Abhorrent Crimes!"
Because, Only then, Will We The People Be Able to Enjoy Our Lives," and "Live in Security Knowing that We are Safe from Harms way!"
But, What Chance Does this Sacred Earth of Ours have of "Living in a Peace Millennium, without "Their Being an Overwhelming Acclamation" and "Global Peace Consensus" amongst "All the Citizens of The World!"
"No One said "It Would Be Easy, But, It Should Be Obvious to any Intelligent, Compassionate," and "Consciously Aware Interdependent Individual" that "Peace Must Come!"
And, Isn't it Time, that "We All Clearly Understood" that "We Must Demand It," and "Declare It," to "Be Our Wish and Our Goal!"
And, Let's Sing It Out, Loud and Clear," that "We Desire with All Our Hearts, Minds, Spirits and Souls," that "We Want to Live in Peace!" And, "Our Global Leaders Must Get this Sentiment" and "Understand the Intensity of It" as, "A Deeply Profound Feeling and Message Of The People, By The People and For The People!"
And, "Mothers and Fathers, Sisters and Brothers, "Do Not Remain Silent" Because, "Too Many of Your Family Members have already Lost Their Lives" to "The Cruelty and Barbarity of War and Violence!"
And, "There Must Be an End to This Senseless Killing," and "It's Time," once again, "For The Peacemakers and Women and Men of Reason of the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries," Who've Experienced the Consequences of War and Violence," and "the Tears upon Tears of Frustration, Deep Sadness, Mutilation, and Trauma," to "Come Forth and Lead The Way!"
And, "Together with All The Voices of Reason and Religious and Spiritual Leaders, (Such as Pope Francis), "Continue to Reason with Those" who "Believe" that "Only, Through Violence Can They Achieve Their Goals!"
And, "World Leaders Must Organize and Step Forward," (Such as Chancellor Angela Merkle of Germany), "Whenever there is A Real Opportunity" to Enter into Peace Dialogues with Whomever the Warring Faction May Be, and "Even Declare a Global Truce," Whenever, "A Sincere and Honest Gesture is Being Offered to Find Agreement Wherever Disagreement May Lie, Diplomatically!"
And, "They Must Be Convinced that Violence, Chaos, and Destruction," Only "Leads to More Violence, Chaos and Destruction!" And, "While There Will Be A Victor," "The Cost Will Be So Great" that, In Fact, "There Will Be No Real Winner's or Satisfaction Gained by the Continuation of This Deathly and Brutal Course of Action and Behavior!"
And, "There is "No Healing Vision or Soothing Words" that "Can Assuage The Pain Experienced," Especially By, or, Of The Families Who've Lost a Loved One!"
If, We are to Truly Build A Peace Movement in The Twenty-First Century that is Lasting, "We Must Discover New Solutions" to "the Problems that Face the Myriad Different Cultures of This Earth's Community of Nations!"
And, "This Global Peace Initiative Must Be Founded in Finding Resolutions" that "Embrace the Ideas and Principles," that "We are All Citizens of This Earth!"
And that, "Each and Everyone of Us Should, therefor, "Be Treated Equally, Respectfully," and "In Equilibre with One Another!"
"It's Time for a New Peace Movement that Challenges Us One and All," from "The Most Vulnerable to the Most Influential!"
And, "We Must Engage Ourselves in This New Peace Initiative and Define It's Purpose and Goals," before "The Leaders of The Earths Nations Decide for Us," that "Another UN-Declared War or Pre-Emptive Military Operation," is "The Best Way To Solve Our Problems," Whatever They May Be!" And, once again, "At Our Expense and Loss of Life!"
"This Would Be Catastrophic and Demoralizing to "A World that is already "Been Too Depressed by The Injustices and Violence of Too Much War, and "Ongoing Conflicts that Last for Decades," (as is on Display in the Middle East, and with North Korea, in East Asia).
"No One has Ever said that "It Would Be Easy," "We've All Seen the Very Disturbing Images on TV, and In Magazines, or via The Social Media, and Global Cross Media Universe," of "The Casualties of War," and "Violent Aggression!"
But, "How Many More of These Violent Images Must We Endure," Caused by False Illusions, Lies, Deceptions, and Misconceptions," and "the Propaganda of False Political and Religious Ideologies and Rhetoric!" "How Much More Must We Bear!"
"There is already "An Endless Valley of the Dead, Filled to the Brim with The Lives of Innocent Victims," and "Heroines and Heroes" who've "Given Their Lives in One War after Another!"
"Shall We End up Being Remembered as "A Fallen Generation/Millennium," Remembered, Only, "For Our Lack of Determination and Commitment to Live in Peace!"
"Are We to Be Remembered" as "A Fallen Millennium, who "Gave up" and "Lost Hope in Ourselves!"
"Let's Be Clear" that We Need to Embark upon a Campaign of Non-Violent Dissent, and Activism, If "We are Too Succeed in Achieving Our Goals!"
And, "Let there Be No Doubt" that "We have to Express Our Deep Concerns about "A Soft Economy that has "No Backbone to It (Especially for the Middle Class, Working Class, Poor and Disenfranchised). That is "Being Controlled and Guided" by "A Group of Capitalistic Oligarchs," who have "No Hearts and No Souls" when It Comes to the Welfare and Travails of We The People!"
These Individuals, Leaders, and Corporations "Care Not about Our Health Care, Social Security, World Poverty, Climate Warming, Sanitation Issues in Third World Nations, The Global Ecology, The Education of Our Children, Renewable Energy, or The Growing Transient/Homeless Population!"
And, "Let there Be No Doubt" that "We Can No Longer Allow Ourselves to Be Swayed by the Promises of False Political Rhetoric, and Lies" that has "Infected Our Lives!"
"No One is saying" that "The Way To Peace is An Easy Path to Take," But, "The Results are Definitely Worth the Dedication and Sacrifice!" "Imagine Living in Peace!"
And Yes, "The Enemies of Peace where Many Disguises," But, "The Civilized Nations of This Planet" have "The Resources" and "Coalition Armed Forces and Intelligence Agencies, to Enforce, Protect, Defend and Preserve The Peace For One and All!" (Plus NATO Forces)
However, "Should Our Leaders Lack in the Motivation or Vision" to "Move Forward with A True Peoples Agenda," Then, "Let Us Encourage Them and Empower Them to Do so," by "Organizing A Non-Violent Global Earthrise Demonstration, in The Name of Peace," and "Collectively" as "One Great Soul Force Of The People," Of This Planet Earth, "Motivate Them," or "Call upon Them to Resign," If, "Their Leadership Position is Too Difficult for Them to Do!"
"No One said It Would Be Easy," But, "How Many More Images Can We The People," Citizens of This Earth, "Bear to See of The Innocent, Lying in Yet Another Pool of Blood!"
But, "Let Us always Remember" that "If, We are to Rise Above the Violence, Brutality and Sadness Caused by War and Conflict," "We Must" Do It, "In The Name of Peace!"
And, Though Not to Be Redundant, "If, There ever was a More Propitious Moment in Time" to "Reach Out to the Leaders of The Earths United Civilized Nations, and "Call for An Immediate Series of Global Peace Dialogues, with Warring Factions," Whomever They May Be, "That Moment is Now!" (UN Secretary General Guterres, Seize the Moment, Let Your Leadership Skills Guide you!)
"It's Time to Give Peace and Prosperity For One and All, An Opportunity to Thrive!"
Voices of Reason and Peacemakers of The Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries, "The Time For Non-Violent Action is Now! "For Our Environmental Causes, Health Care Causes, Civil Rights, Gender Rights, Children and Women's Rights, Economic Parity, Religious Freedom," and "The Rights of One and All to Live in Peace!"
And, "Let's Give Peace a Chance to Thrive in a Real Time/Space Environment," and, with "a Peace Time Economy!" (I Can Hear John and Yoko and a Group of Their Friends and Celebrities Singing "Give Peace a Chance" within A Stadium Filled with Peace Enthusiasts, All Raising Their Voices and Singing The Chorus Together!)
And, "Remember always," that "We are A Great Soul Force Of The People, By The People and For The People!"
Yes, "A Great Soul Force" of "A Grand Diverse Tapestry and Fabric of The Twenty-First Century!" And, "This is The New Norm Of The People" of "An UN-Breakable Nexus Of, By and For The People," and "A Peace Millennia!"
For, This is, The Way To Peace, and An Omnipresent, Omnipotent, and Omniscient Age of Peace, Justice, and An Earthrise of Limitless Opportunities, Innovations, Peacetime Entrepreneurialism, Respect For Each Other and Our Planet Earth, and Universe of A Myriad Sentient and Inanimate Beings and Luminous Bodies!
